  • The source button uses cpp11::source_cpp() on C++ files that have [[cpp11::register]] decorations (#10387)

  • The Git/SVN pane now supports creating ED25519-encrypted SSH keys by default. Newly created RSA SSH keys will now be 4096 bits instead of 2048 to increase security (#8255)

  • Fixed Find in Files whole-word replace option, so that when “Whole word” is checked, only file matches containing the whole word are replaced, as displayed in the preview (#9813)
  • Adds support for POSIX extended regular expressions with backreferences in Find in Files find and replace modes, so that special regex characters such as + and ?, |, (, etc do not need to be escaped, and other ERE escape sequences such as \b, \w, and \d are now supported. This matches the behavior of R’s own grep() function, but note that backslashes do not need to be escaped (as they typically are in R strings) (#9344)
